As I see there no point to mine Monero on a typical machine if your point is not to help the network, I do have 10k/h just to help Monero. So, why would anyone mine monero?

I have been mining since about November of last year and have gotten ~0.12XMR for my efforts. Sure its not much, but i did obtain it permissionlessly. I also have not had 8khs the whole time. Most of that time was with 2khs. Most of that 0.12XMR has been earned in the last 3 months since getting to 8khs.

@shortwavesurfer even distributed computing is permissionless but differently from what you're talking of there are several tens of thousands people less on the world community grid using the boinc network for scientific, environmental and medical calculations
